In this video, you’ll see how to make a shooter’s sandwich. Made with layers of seared steak and sautéed mushrooms and shallots, it's dressed with a spicy mustard-horseradish sauce. You’ll add the sandwich fixings to a hollowed-out loaf of round bread. And then press the sandwich overnight. (Chef John also lays down a layer of pâté.) The name refers to a sandwich that British fox hunters would carry with them on the hunt back in the day. Watch the video, then get the recipe for Chef John’s Shooter’s Steak Sandwich. For our modern purposes, this incredible (and involved) sandwich would be a fun, far-from-ordinary treat for tailgating or Super Bowl parties. See more Chef John videos >>
